Health Rules for Winter

Never lean with the back upon any
thing that is cold.
Never begin a journey until the break.
fast has been eaten.
Never take warm drinks aud then im-
mediately go out in the cold air.
Keep the back-especially between the
shoulder blades-well covered; also the
chest will protected. In sleeping in a
cold room establish the habit of breathing
through the nose, aud never with the
mouth open.
Never go to bed with cold or damp
feet,
Never omit regular bathing, for unless
the skin is in active condition the cold
will close the pores and favor congestion
or other disease.
After exercises of any kind never ride
in an open carrige, or near the window
of car for moment; it is dangerous TO
health and even to life
When hoarse, speak as little as possible
until the hoarsness Is recovered from. else
the voice may be permanently lost, or
difficulties of the throat be produced.
Merely warm the ack by q fire, and
never continue keeping the back exposed
to heat after it has become comfortably
warm. To do otherwise is debiliating.
When going from warm atmosphere
| into cooler one keep the mouth closed
so that the air may be warmed by its pass
age through the nose ere it reaches the
lungs.
Never stand still in cold weather, espe-
cially after having taking slight degree
of exercise; and always avoid standing on
| ice or snow, or where the person is ex-
posed to cold wind.-Fdrm and Fire

bohemian Glass Ornamentation.

The 'ornamentatiCn of the glass is done
partly in connection with the exposure in
the furnace, and partly in the finishing
shops, where the work is completed by
cutting, polishing, furnishing, etching,
painting and mounting in metal. The
glass houses have at their command very
complete color scale for transparent,
Opaque and clouded glasses. But it must
not be supposed that cruciblc is placed
in the furnace for each color, from which
glass colored for each ornament is to be
made. The colors are worked out by
means of what are called pastes, previ-
ously warmed until they are soft, suitable
quantities are cut of, laid upon the foCn-
dation of white or colored glass, and then
spread out by drawing or blowing. By
this means only is an economical use Of
such costly matericls as gold and silver
compositions possible.
Some of the glasses thus treated-gold,
copper and silver glasses-remain still lit
tie, or not at all, colored after the meltelg,
shaping and quick cooling; and do not
take ON their bright hues till they are re-
heated. This is the case with the yellow
silver glass, which continues uncolored
after the intermelting Of the silver salt
until it is exposed in the furnace again.
Very fine effects are produced by blending
or overrunning of the paste colors, pro-
vided proper attention is given to the laws
CT harmony. A blue glass cup is, for ex-
ample, oyerlaid with silver glass at its
upper edge, and this is drawn down in
gradually thinner tones till it fades away
at the foot of the vase. Gold and copper
ruby colors are thus combined with green
glasses, etc. Another brilliant effect is
produced when a still hot bulb of glass is
rolled in finely pulverized aventurine
glass, and after this is melted, and pre-
vious to the shaping of the vessel, is over
laid with coating Of either coIored or
colorless glass. Christian at Work

Huntinr tho VIVA noar.

In Germany tho boar hunt occurs an
nually. Trained hounds are held in leash
until the lair Of the boar9 il shifted an1
then they arc let go. OF rush the brist-
ling bensts. They run fast, and the
faster they skip along the wider and
''madder' they get. Sometimes they
are shot, but the correct style Of killing
is to use a long spear or short sword
like knife. The hunter spies his boarship
speeding along in an almost straight line
blinded with rage and ferocity. Eend-
ing sideways to the earth the sportsman
thrusts his spear duh end downward in
the soil and the sharp point slanting up
ward and turned directly to the boar's
path. Straight on the wild boar rashcs
and with all the impetus of his long
flight piunges upon tho spear point, and
there inlpaled, dies bloody death.
Although no boars are found among
the wild animals Of the United States,
naturalists have no fear that they cannot
live in this climate and will thrive. The
ordinary hog if allowed TO run wild win
become savage in three generations. and
both the newly imported boars and any
farmers pigs belong to the samc family.

This story is told of the wife ofan emil

dence was on the s'dill." One day while
the lady was in the midst Of preparations
for the midday meal (this was in tho
olden time when people cot up in the
morning and had dinner at the proper
time) caller was announced. Hastily
leaving the kitchen where she was over
seeing operations she entered the next
room where the visitor was. The door
between the two was open, and pretty
soon tho lady broke Off the conversation
and called to the .'help'' in tho kitchen:
Nancy, does the kettle bo:l.'

Then the conversation was renewed, TO
be broken again in few minutes by tho
inquiry;

of last week he brought to the city a load of
hogs which brought something over six hundred
dollars. Becker states that he needed the
amount to pay for more hogs he had already
purchased in Benton county. The firm, he
says consented to his taking the money with
the understanding that the hogs would be held
subject to order. Friday he was ordered to load
the hogs so that they could reach

ship them. He also failed to ship the hogs for

that the hogs must be sent, and he answered,

A SHOCKING ACCIDENT.
The Mother Of Raymond Williams Finds Him
Hanging Dead in a WoodShed.

William Williams is the book-keeper for
Chandler & Taylor, and resides a. 287 West
Michigan street. He is the father of two chill
dren-a son, Raymond, aged sixteen years, and
m infant daughter His son, when young, suf-
fered partial paralysis Of his right side, and all
his life has been an invalid. Last winter he
attended school some, but few weeks ago he
failed so much physically that he was taken
from his studies. His only duty being to get
the wood and kindlings for the kitchen, he spent
much of his tine about the woodshed. and took
great pride about its arrangements. His
Aindlings ne kept on the second floor,
and for raising them up there had
q rope and pulley. The rope hung
by the side of a steep stairway. Yesterday
afternoon the boy left the house about 4 o'clock
to prepare his kindling for me ming. Only few
appeared in the best of spirits. He had been
gone half hour when his mother went to the
rear door, and through the wood-shed door saw
him standing, she thought, on the stairway
in peculiar position. A few minutes later she
had occasion to go to the door again. and saw him
in the same position. She called to him, and
when he did not answer, she went out to the
shed and found him hanging beside the stairway
dead. The rope he had used in drawing up the
wood was looped under his chin, and his feet
were but few inches from the ground. From
appearances he must have been ascending the
stairway, when he slipped and fell, catching his
chin in the loop Of the rope. Coroner Wagner
was called, and after holding an inquest returned
n verdict that the cause of his death by &C.
cidental hanging The funeral will occur to-
morrow morning.

Two Lame Tailors Nominated for the Same
Office ut North Long Branch.
Long Branch Special.
A contest at the polls which bids fair to be, in
degree. as interesting as the campaign Of the
two Iaysors In Tennessee, will occur here at the
coming township election. On Saturday after
noon the Democrats of Ocean township held
primary at North Long Branch and among other
nominations made was that of Alexander Neon
nell, clean-cut Jeffersonian Democrat with
level head and good heart for constable. He is
a prosperous tailor, but unfortunately, is lame
and obliged to walk with cane. He is very
popular here. In the evening the Republicans
held their primary meeting IN the opera-house
and Samuel g. Hall was nominated for consta-

teemed. Still stranger to relate. Hail. like his
Democratic opponent, is also lame and walks

and both wear full boards. These two remark
able nominations are the talk of the town and
the source OF much innocent merriment. AL
ready people have manifested strong interest
in the coming contest and the population of the
upper village is taking sides with one the
other OF the candidates There is every proba
bility that an unusually heavy vote will he
polled IN that section of the city. Unfortunate
ly for Mr.. Hail. Ocean township is overwheim-
lngly Democratic, but it is presumed that in the
contest between the two tailors, politics will be.
so Tar as they are concerned, laid the shelf.
There Will be more fun in this amusing cam
palgn than III firstclass dog show. Candidate
Mcconnell held levee at Britton's drug store
last evening, while Hall is being overwhelmed
with calls from persons who promise to vote for
him. Both candidates are noted for their fond
ness Tor root beer and peanuts, and it is pre-
sumed both will be freely used on election day.
